Kalypso Media's ‘The Dark Eye - Demonicon’ Goes
Gold for PC

Bracknell, UK, 11th October 2013 – Kalypso
Media is pleased to announce that the Windows PC version of
The Dark Eye - Demonicon, its dark fantasy
action-RPG, has gone gold. Check out the brand new screens released
today for a further look into the deep combat system, rich
environments and gruesome monsters. Versions of
The Dark Eye – Demonicon for the Xbox
360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft and
PlayStation®3 computer entertainment system will follow in
2014.

Demonicon returns players to the fantastical but
twisted world of Aventuria, the setting of the classic pen &
paper RPG ‘The Dark Eye’. In the game, you witness the
fate of a young man named Cairon and his sister Calandra, as they
struggle with destiny, demonic forces and the harsh wastes of the
Shadowlands.

The Dark Eye – Demonicon is out on October
25th for Windows PC, Steam and other digital portals.

The Dark Eye - Demonicon is a thrilling action-RPG
set in the extraordinarily popular universe of 'The Dark Eye', a
richly crafted fantasy universe beloved by fantasy gamers
throughout the world.

Demonicon tells the tragic story of a brother and
sister who become pawns of sinister forces in a world of cruelty
and depravity. In this bleak yet magical world, their
affection is both a blessing and a curse. Both are constantly
threatened by mortal danger and demonic temptation, and must find a
way through their tortured lives by facing serious moral
decisions. Their common destiny will determine that of the
entire continent, and will be decided by the choices they
make. Hordes of fiends block their way to freedom and peace,
and only through battle and magic they will truly become free of
the darkness.
